A thought by John C. Maxwell, from his
book, The Difference Maker (p. 31). HarperCollins Leadership. Kindle
Edition. (Click on the book title to go to Amazon.com to buy the book.)
A good question would be, so what makes
the difference?

John goes on, “For years I have tried
to live by the following statement: I cannot always choose what happens to me,
but I can always choose what happens in me. Some things in life are beyond my
control. Some things are within it. My attitude in the areas beyond my control can
be the difference maker. My attitude in the areas that I do control will
be the difference maker. In other words, the greatest difference my difference
maker can make is within me, not others. That is why your attitude is your
greatest asset or liability. It makes you or breaks you. It lifts you up or
brings you down. A positive mental attitude will not let you do everything. But it can help you do anything better than you would if your attitude were
negative.”
Your attitude will not let you do everything but
it can help you do anything better. And
that is very valuable to know, isn’t it?
